Former Mexican President Vicente Fox went on a rant excoriating presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump in a podcast interview that will be posted on Tuesday.

“Wake up Americans, he’s a false prophet,” said Fox in an iTunes preview of the Kick Ass Politics interview, which was first reported by BuzzFeed.
“Think about it, analyze what he’s proposing. Count the amount of lies he says in every speech, everyday he lies and lies with figures because his sole interest is to do personal business,” Fox continued. “To get greedy, to get more money. To put the Trump name everyday in the world.”
Fox has been critical of Trump in the past, and reiterated in the interview that Mexico will not pay for Trump’s proposed wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
The former president also argued that the real estate mogul’s proposals would hurt the U.S. economy and would encourage war.
“I’m not gonna pay for that f--king wall and please don’t take out the f--king full word,” he said. “He’s crazy. He is crazy.”
“He is ugly America,” Fox added. “He is the hated gringo because he’s attacking all of us. He’s offending all of us.”
Last week, Fox seemed to change his tune and invited Trump to visit Mexico.
"I think it's very important to invite Donald Trump to come to Mexico and to learn about the real Mexico," Fox said on Fox News's "The O'Reilly Factor.”
But in February, Fox said Mexico would not pay for Trump's "f------ wall."
Trump told The New York Times that the border wall would be designed within his first 100 days in office.
